Dear Ski,
Welcome to OFF, and thank you for your military service. Will you remain in the Army when you move to Oregon or are you out?
My idiot older brother is stationed at Fort Hood I think (he is not very communicative) and he just returned from his deployment to Afghanistan. Should an idiot older brother with no military or public service experience be allowed to join the Army at 49 years at the rank of Captain? I don't think so but he is a psychologist and works with front line troops on PTSD issues. He freely admits to having little knowledge of how to use his assigned weaponry even though he had the highest SAT score in the State in high school. God bless him, I guess. If you see him tell him I said "hey", and also tell him I said "f**k you". He will understand.
I don't know much about fishing Hillsboro, heck, I don't know much about fishing at all. I do like the gamble though, so when you are ready please let me know and I will take you over to (bank) fish in the Siletz, just one of many stunningly beautiful rivers that we have.
Thank you again and stay safe,
EJ
